After the victory, Reid had this to say about 'Dez: "He's become one of my best friends honestly. We only started working together this year, and I want to give him as much credit as possible. I could not have gone through as easy as I have done without him on the bag.

"I'm just absolutely delighted and proud that he's with me the whole way. He doesn't change whether I make a bogey or birdie, which I think is good for me. His emotions don't change at all. Just a great dude, and he's like a brother to me now. I love him to death and he deserves all the credit.

"He's an unbelievable caddie and I'm very lucky to have him on the bag."
